Pictures please

Seconded!
Why is there a thread about people having it and not one single cat picture?

After comparing against a few 28mm lenses from Canon, the Sigma 28 Art and Sony 28/2, looks like this STM will hold its own, in respect to sharpness. It's comparable to the EF 28/2.8 IS and better than the old EF 28/2.8. Peripheral sharpness is surprisingly as good or better than other 28s. Distortion, while not mild, is not crazy either, like the 16, which likely goes a long way towards retaining peripheral fine detail sharpness. Its uncorrected distortion is also less severe than the 24/1.8 and much less severe than the 24-105 STM, 24-50 and 24-240. It would probably be usable without distortion correction for scenes without obvious geometric content that would reveal its barrel distortion, assuming uncorrected images have even better peripheral sharpness, which should be the case....Show more →
Being comparable to the 28/2.8 IS is an achievement, given that the RF 28/2.8 STM is a 'lower rent' option relatively speaking. Like the other pancakes for various systems that Canon has produced, one can usually just set the camera to shutter priority and go to town (literally, go to town to take pictures!).

I would still like to see real world, farther distance across-frame performance. TDP's test chart is likely quite close to the camera and the lens's results at this distance may not mean it performs similarly at or near infinity.
If it has at least decent distant to infinity performance and reasonable field flatness, could see this being useful especially for minimalist landscape/cityscape loadouts.
